What is the common ratio of the geometric progression?

The common ratio is the ratio of the nth term (n > 1) to the (n-1)th term. For the progression to be geometric, this ratio must be a non-zero constant.

How can you tell if a infinite geometric series has a sum or not?

The geometric series is, itself, a sum of a geometric progression. The sum of an infinite geometric sequence exists if the common ratio has an absolute value which is less than 1, and not if it is 1 or greater.

What is the difference between arithmetic progression and geometric progression?

In an arithmetic progression the difference between each term (except the first) and the one before is a constant. In a geometric progression, their ratio is a constant. That is, Arithmetic progression U(n) - U(n-1) = d, where d, the common difference, is a constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1) + d = U(1) + (n-1)*d Geometric progression U(n) / U(n-1) = r, where r, the common ratio is a non-zero constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1)*r = U(1)*r^(n-1).

Why is geometric progression preferred over arithmetic progression?

The question cannot be answered because it assumes something which is simply not true. There are some situations in which arithmetic progression is more appropriate and others in which geometric progression is more appropriate. Neither of them is "preferred".


What is A ratio that involves geometric measures such as length or area?

It is a geometric ratio.


Can common ratio be 1 in geometric progression?

if a number is multiplied by 1, then it does not change, it is Still the same number. A ratio of 1 is impossible . The ratio between two quantities must always be greater than 1 otherwise there is no difference between them.
